It provides fast lookups of Forward Sortation Area (FSA) codes to retrieve associated city, province, geographic coordinates, and timezone data. The package also supports radius-based searches to find all postal codes within a specified distance in kilometers from a given FSA code.\n\nThe package has no runtime dependencies and installs cleanly as a pure Python wheel. It was last updated in June 2021 and is no longer actively maintained, so the underlying postal code data may not reflect recent changes to Canadian postal code assignments or geographic boundaries.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you need Canadian postal code lookups and can accept that the data is frozen as of June 2021. The package is stable, has no dependencies, and installs easily. However, if you require current postal code data or active maintenance, you should verify the database currency against Canada Post's current FSA assignments before relying on it in production."},"id":"pypostalcode","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/pypostalcode","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/pypostalcode.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/pypostalcode/"},"maintenance":{"status":"abandoned"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2021-06-19","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"pypostalcode","python_support":"unspecified","summary":"Radius searches on Canadian postal codes, location data"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":196048,"position":9799,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"0.4.1"}
